Houston, we have a problem!

So, Houston now has the nation's first openly gay mayor.

Does that qualify her to govern, or is it just a statement of some sort from the nation's gay rights activists?

Well, duh!?!?

She CLEARLY was not the most qualified candidate, but every gay, lesbian, cross-dressing, hermaphrodite weirdo in the country got behind her with a national fundraising effort, attempting to make her candidacy a referendum on the legitimacy of being gay instead of how well (or not well) she would govern Houston.

Thanks for not showing up, NORMAL Houston!

You know, I don't throw that term "normal" or "abnormal" around loosely. From any perspective (except the gay perspective, of course) homosexuality is simply NOT normal. What IS normal? From a simple statistical standpoint, "normal" is any part of the bell curve that falls within two standard deviations of the mean. Typically, "normal" encompasses about 95% of the sample population, which means that about 5% of any population could be expected to be "abnormal" in some way. This, of course, is why the gay rights people are so adamant about pronouncing that, according to them, 10% of the population is homosexual. THAT would mean that about 50% of that population falls withing the range of "normal." Which half is abnormal, gay rights guy? The half that becomes a priest and molests little boys or the half that becomes a serial killer and eats people?

Just wondering...

In any case, even if you buy the gay rights statistics (which I clearly DON'T by the way!!!), look at it from a clearly anatomical standpoint. Sex, by its very nature, is meant to cause propagation of the species. We're built so that the female partner donates 23 chromosomes and the male partner donates the other 23 and the zygote winds up with the normal number of 46. Although I do not mean by any stretch of the imagination to be insensitive, this is exactly why Down's Syndrome children are not normal; they have an extra chromosome (47) that causes any number of physical problems for them.

Having an extra chromosome falls within the 5% of the population that could be considered "abnormal" from a statistical standpoint. I'm sorry if that offends some; but it IS the truth!

Anyway, try as they might to represent themselves as "normal" through "Partner" adoption, artificial insemination, or some other form of parenthood by artificial means, gay unions are not capable of procreation in the manner intended by God.

They are therefore, NOT normal!

All that said, it's clearly a sickness that activists do whatever they can to push their agenda DESPITE what may or may not be good or acceptable from the standpoint of pure governance. Anise Parker was caught in several untruths during the course of the campaign, ranging from fabrications of her own voting record while on city council to made up endorsements.

Well, since the Clinton years, we know that lying isn't that big a deal to the electorate....

even if it SHOULD be!!!

So, much like the nation in which it resides, Houston is stuck with an unqualified, if decidedly PC candidate for at least 4 years.

I hope I'm not anywhere near here when the wheels fall off!
